Website galleries?

[InvaderGIR]

I know technically this would be better in the web area, but it is photography based.

I'm fiddling with my site at the moment and am after a nice, clean, simple (looking) image gallery along the lines of what MessiahKhan has on his site, but something that is free.

At the moment I have a simple gallery system, which is ok, but it just doesn't seem right on my site. It makes me feel that it needs to display some info on the photos, but it can't.

It needs to embed in a page, not be a standalone page, if that makes sense...

I did have the likes of 'images.html' which required editing offline, but now I can easily update the site online I'd like a photo gallery that works well.

My website is here

If you navigate to the 'Gallery' page you can see that the current plugin I am using just spams images down the page, which isn't of much use.

I'm probably not making much sense, but if you look at mine, then at MK's you'll get the idea of what I have, and what I would prefer.

Nice pimping, although I don't see the coat, cain and lowrider.

I'll have a gander at that one certainly, more after something that fits in the stupidly small area I have available on my site.

Having said that, I may well end up changing the site's layout again soon, to something not so small and restrictive, but once I've set up all of the pages I want website theme changes aren't hard.

seeing as your site runs on joomla, aren't there loads of galleries for that?

Yes. And I am running one, but most of the ones I've found cost money, or are very simple and basic, and just spam images down the page...like the one I have.

Ok, so one of the ones I tried before and couldn't get to work I now have working...what you lot think (ignore the shoddy photos ).

My Gallery.

EDIT: if the site appears to be down, it's due to my naff host, and it'll come back up after a couple mins.

Copy or rename the file called config-example.php to config.php and open it in your favourite text editor, editing the values to fit your own details. Be sure to edit the username and password.

Have you done the bold?
